The version of UltraVNC Service installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 1.3.8.1. It is, therefore, affected by an escalation of privilege vulnerability in DSM plugin module. When running as a service, a local, authenticated, attacker can run arbitrary code in the context of the VNC server process.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
